Why is the iPhone SDK Important?

Hey Chris,
Towards the end you said a very key statement. You said your at that point where you just want your technology to work and I couldn’t agree more. I went mac over a year ago after being a windows user and windows IT (MCSE) guy. I got tired of always haveing to “hack” at my computer to get it to run right. I got tired of the babysitting. Spyware detection, anti-virus, malware, on and on….and then keeping those apps updated. Then issues with the registry. I don’t have to tell you because im sure you know what its like. I felt like I spent more time babysitting my computer than getting any work done. I had been a mac admirer ever since OSX simply because I loved the unix fundamentals under the hood. So a year ago I made the switch with a mac mini and then eventually an iMac to do video editing on. It was the greatest thing I could have ever done. I don’t babysit anymore, I simply get things done. Anyone that has ever been caught up in DLL hell would salivate over the way most applications are installed on OSX, a simple drag and drop. In closing my iphone purchase is upcoming as I am done with the terrible phone experiences….just waiting on the contract to expire.

Tech Digestwrote an interesting post today on Here’s a quick excerpt Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed There’s buzz everywhere about Apple’s Software Development Kit - or SDK- release. You can, of course, download the SDK if you are

I thought this video looked familiar… Then I remembered that I was in the chat at that time lol.

GO !!

define “alot”

- no Interface builder for now (remember this sdk for iPhone is still in beta stage)
- no OpenGL on the iPhone simulator (You’l need to apply to the 99$ fees, and wait for the firmware 2.0)

I like now that there is an SDK even though that it would not hold me back from an Iphone because I would jailbreak it. Now all I need is 3G. I do not have a smartphone right now mostly because i am disgusted in Microsoft’s poor job with Win mobile. I thank you apple, for the SDK but I need my 3G!!! Oh and 32 GB would be nice.

You got it exactly right. What Apple has developed here is a well integrated, easy to use, easy to expand new mobile & handheld computer platform. They are banging on all gears. This new development platform will also be utilized across numerous devices…most of which we have not even seen yet. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Expandable, scalable, easily deployable, fantastic, economically (code) wise developer tools that will work across multiple devices. After all the ecosystem is all built on OSX.

does any one knows when is the iphone gonna be available in New zealand???

Hey Chris, have you tried using ZiPhoneOSX to jailbreak your iPhone and add apps? You can do what Apple is offering NOW, and with no risk. The level of ease and speed with which jailbreaking has become a reality are night and day - you can jailbreak a phone in 20 seconds flat with no risk and no additional downloads….

Great Sdk rules

It is…but some features are locked. Wait for another couple of months until they unlock them

you could buy an unlocked one and use it with vodafone SIM

iphone is the best windows phones suk
who cares about echange and outlok

Hey pirillo.com, new subscriber and viewer.
Just as you said iPhone helped me find your site and broadcasts. The phone, and sdk have pushed me over the edge to purchase an iMac. I do have a few questions. Is the sdk going to allow the rotating screen everywhere, or is that something we are stuck waiting for apple for? Also is this going to open up connecting to bluetooth devices, such as headphones for music, and gps receivers for actual gps, as opposed to theis trianglized approzimation.

I absolutely agree with your view of the sdk release. This will allow software developers to truly bring out the power of the iphone. I am a little worried thought. I believe that apple MUST release the iphone 2.0 when the software 2.0 is released. While the iphone is a great machine, it does need some upgrades. I dont think apple will be able to go much longer without upgrading to 3G speeds, and i really hope they also add gps capabilities. I have not really had great success with the triangulation system they currently have implemented.

go go go

yeah i know theres some… but my mom showed me a news its gonna be here in june 2008… just want to check if its true..

I love my Nokia N91. Dedicated audio controls, and a 3.5mm jack that’s not too deeply recessed. Oh, and I had it nearly 2 years and still love it!

Actually it’s coming out fall of 2008

This guy must be freezing if the temperature is actually such a brisk 48.9F.

if you hack your phone you get get cool **** for free

lolim in the top 5 lol

in response to the above query about the screen rotation, the SDK offers developers all the same APIs Apple developers have access to including the sensors for screen rotation (forgotten the name). So, if you build your application with relevant reference to the API, bingo…

Exciting times!

dude, I had a Newton, remember that?? Just JB’d my 1.1.3 OTB with Ziphone in 10 min and works great.

Well, The iPhone SDK is very important due to the applications people have been asking for. For example, maybe Adobe might make an app that is something like flash, or maybe some good games for people to have fun. Also, jailbreaking your iPhone will soon be pointless because all the jailbreak is is games and some other apps. Well, the iPhone SDK will have that too, Well the jailbreak apps are free……

cretin boy lol

wrong

After dropping my Treo 650 last weekend, I’ve being forced into buying a new phone. With the lackluster phone selection from Tmobile I’m switching to AT&T just to get an iPhone. This video/news is especially encouraging because the main reason I need a pocket pc is to access work email via an Exchange server. So wheee… iPhone here I come.

i totally get you

does steve jobs pay you man?lol

No, and did you have to send that three times? Idiot.

Well, I would like to see some flash in the iPhone SDK. I think that such a powerful(and big, 8 or 16 GB) does not have flash. Its like a computer not having Microsoft Word. Its just stupid. Also, 3G!! I have wi-fi at my house, but when i have to use Edge, I just die. I had AOL a few years ago, so I know what slow Internet is. EDGE needs to go. Lastly, put some more apps on it. I know I’m getting killed for this, but I think that the iPhone needs some more apps and more in depth apps. For example, weather. It tells you the current temperature, and the next 7 days temperature and how the day will be. Well, some people want more. Like how the pressure is outside, the humitidy, and so on and so forth. Also, a great app would be a sports app. Like having the scores of every game with the touch of your finger
